2) HUNGARIAN group Bran, playing Irish and other Celtic music, formed in 1993
KOVÁCS Gáborján
flute, whistles, vocal, bodhrán, concertina, storytelling
The leader of the band, Gáborján Kovács - lecturer of Celtic Mythology and Cultural History of Medieval Ireland at the University ELTE of Budapest - is in charge of Music and Culture - had been a student at the University College of Cork in 1992-1993 studying ethnomusicology, Celtic mythology, cultural history of medieval Ireland and Irish language. Among his professors were Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin, Pádraig Ó Riain, Máire Herbert and Mel Mercier. Arriving back to Hungary his main goal was to popularise the historical traditions of Irish music (repertoire of the old harp playing tradition, singing traditions of Gregorian origins, compositions of O'Carolan and songs in Irish) besides the traditional dance-music. His lectures on Irish history and culture make the concerts of Bran complete.
KIS Sándor
bodhrán, percussions, whistle
Sanyi Kis, the bodhrán player joined one of Gábor's guided tour to Ireland in 1996 where he bought his first bodhrán. First his interest was risen by Pogues that he heard in 1993 on a music channel. As a result, he went to Scottish and Irish ceilis here in Budapest (at that time there were only 2 or 3 bands playing this type of music). He also joined sessions where he picked up the bodhran with the help of Kevin Madden and Peter O'Brian from Manchester who were here in Budapest at that time for a few month. Sanyi had been playing with this and that band, here and there in Hungary till finally in 1999 he joined Bran and became a full member.
CSÁSZÁR Róbert
guitar
Robert Csaszar, the guitarist got to know the band while they were still mainly based in Veszprem in 1996. Although he had only played classical music before, he became interested and as the guitarist of the band was about to leave he decided to take up his place. He's been playing with Bran ever since.
SZABÓ Tánya
dance teaching
Tánya Szabó also joined Gábor's guided tour to Ireland in 1996 and then she went back and stayed there for a whole year in 1998. (Since then she's also been back several times.) She had an interest in Irish set dancing so she went to pubs, workshops, festivals as well as became friendly with many great dancers and had a brilliant time there!
Since she has returned back home in 1999 she's been with Bran running the ceilis. After a while she also took up the tin whistle and every now and then she joins the band and plays one or two tunes along with them during gigs and ceilis.

Take Me Higher
Bran Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me higher
Off the ground
We're on fire
But i need you now
Take me higher
Off the ground

Take me higher

Overall Meaning

Bran's song "Take Me Higher" communicates the idea of someone requesting assistance to reach a better state in life. The lyrics "Take me higher, off the ground" portray the concept of wanting to transcend from one's current position and reach a greater level of fulfillment. The line "We're on fire, but I need you now" reveals that the person may be experiencing a level of success or passion but they are still lacking in some way. They require someone to help them reach their full potential by taking them to a greater height.

The chorus line "When these desires don't look down, cause I need you now" expresses the fears that come with leaving one's comfort zone, and how a trustworthy support system can assist in overcoming those fears to reach new heights. The person wants to go higher but has some reservations about proceeding alone. The song encourages listeners to place confidence in the people who support them, who can help them achieve their dreams and lead them to a better place in life.
